Performance of n-on-p planar pixel sensors with active edges at high-luminosity environment
Résumé
Future high-energy physics experiments require highly segmented silicon sensors of increased geometrical efficiency with the ability to withstand extremely high radiation damage. The performance of planar n-on-p sensors with active edges is simulated at high radiation fluences up to 1 × 10$^{16}$ n$_{eq}$/cm$^{2}$, using a three-level trap model for p-type silicon material. Taking advantage of the secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) technique, an accurate representation of the structure was obtained in terms of doping profile. The breakdown voltage, leakage current, hole density and electric field distributions as well as the charge collection efficiency (CCE) are studied as a function of radiation fluence.
